Future sediment budget and distribution for the Rhine-Meuse delta

11/02/2021 - Rivers2Morrow
The Rhine-Meuse delta in the Netherlands has a negative sediment budget, i.e. it annually looses sediment. In this research, we construct a sediment budget for two future scenarios 2050 and 2085 which incorporate both socio-economic change and climate scenarios for the region

The evolution of primary dunes during low flows on the Waal river

11/02/2021 - Rivers2Morrow
In this study, we investigate the dune evolution in a stretch of 2 km Waal iver, the Netherlands, between the cities of Tiel and St. Andries, focusing on the low water period of 2018. The bed elevation profiles are based on Multibeam Echo Sounding (MBES) measurements of the fairway, measured on average once per two weeks.

Scenarios for Controls of River Response to Climate Change in the Lower Rhine River

11/02/2021 - Rivers2Morrow
We discuss the projected changes of the hydrodynamic river controls over the 21st century, and how they can be transformed into suitable boundary conditions for a schematized model. Here we consider the Lower Rhine River, from Bonn (Germany) to Gorinchem (Netherlands).

Efficient long-term one-dimensional morphodynamic modelling in alluvial rivers using simplified models – theory and validation

11/02/2021 - Rivers2Morrow
The scope of this research is to assess how and when model simplifications are possible, without jeopardizing the predictive capacity in terms of sediment transport and riverbed development.

Flow Structure at the Pannerdense Kop Bifurcation

11/02/2021 - Rivers2Morrow
Flow structure provides useful information regarding these by detailing the threedimensional features of flow. This abstract mainly focuses on some of the observations from the ADCP surveys performed between November 2019 and February 2020 at the Pannerdense Kop

Superimposed bedforms in the Rhine-Meuse delta

13/02/2020 - Rivers2Morrow
This research aims to elucidate the role of superimposed bedforms in rivers and to determine whether superimposed bedforms contribute to the transport of bed sediment and how they interact with primary dunes.

Towards a model for river dune dynamics under high and low discharges

13/02/2020 - Rivers2Morrow
The interplay of bedform dynamics, especially river dunes, and extreme flow conditions results in multiple challenges in river management. Decreasing this uncertainty results in more certain flood levels and therefore increases water safety.

Bed level change in the upper Rhine Delta since 1926 and rough extrapolation to 2050

01/11/2019 - Rivers2Morrow
This study constitutes a first step into predicting the long term morphodynamic response of the Upper Rhine- Delta to climate change. The aim is to get deeper insight into past bed level trends and explore options for data-based extrapolation.
